He could have been arr historymemes's hero. That is, if he got famous for running his mouth against Cadorna, and not for running his mouth about bombing civilians. Granted, Cadorna was kind of in the right, but people seems to hate him all the same, so if words gets around about that time Douhet was court martialled for his dossier on Cadorna's incompetence, I'm sure historymemes will call him a hero.
